Soarer is the last one shown

Yen 150K for all 3 bits = +-$1800 Aus, plus transport

BUT it's apparently OEM quality/fit.

The big (looking) wheels take the focus off the bodykit which is the part they're trying to sell.

It's a subtle but good looking kit.

The stupid amount of negative camber is what wrecks the look. They all look like they have had something heavy on them that has bent the axles.

Original Equipment Manufacturer.

Example, Toyota wheels for Soarers are OEM wheels, whereas after market ones aren't.

So the implication was that the quality is as good as the original Toyota body parts.

Yeah, I really like that kit, very subtle and understated. It looks like a whole front bar replacement though instead of a 8/96~ front with an add-on lip. Looks like a mix between Auto Couture and Wald.

Those mirrors are made by Mythos.
